The passage mentions that there was a "greater away-from-home consumption" among U.S. children during this time period. This suggests that they were consuming more meals and snacks outside of the home, which likely resulted in a shift away from home-cooked meals and potentially led to an increase in fast food consumption and energy-dense snacks. The passage does not provide evidence to support choices A, B, or D.
